I have been trying to figure out this issue for the past year on my Asus Z370-E Gaming... it was making Garageband/Logic unusable because the audio would skip and eventually overload the audio stack requiring me to hard reset it. Disabling the serial port did the trick. Thank you all! Edit...

Thank you- just did a restore and this helped me realize what was missing from my EFI folder.

Thanks for tip. I ended up buying a demo 2.7/16GB/512GB MBP 15" Touch bar for the same price I would have spent on the higher end GS63R.

Any chance you have an update on your GS63VR since the Nvidia 10xx driver release? I'm looking at this laptop to replace my 2012 rMBP. Much appreciated!

Oops, I missed that part. I hope your upgrade to Sierra goes well. I'll be looking forward to seeing your progress.

Any update on the graphics card functionality since Nvidia released Mac 10xx drivers? My 2012 rMBP just died and I've been looking at this laptop whether or not it runs macOS.

Figures I just bought and installed an RX480... oh well. It was only $150.

I couldn't get my XFX RX480 8GB to work until I saw this post. Step #4 above was the fix for me. Thanks so much for posting this!

Upgrading to Sierra was one of the more annoying installations I've done with my hack. Coming from a very easy and fully functioning El Capitan installation, I didn't expect this to be that bad. After days of not having graphics acceleration or my GPU being recognized as 7MB in System...

Thank you very much for this!

You peaked my curiosity until I found this case is only available (edit: in the US) in black and through an eBay seller... for $270. It's a good looking case but i'll stick with my $70 Corsair 330R.

My EX58A-UD3R with OC'ed i7-930 is still running strong for almost 5 years. I've been fiending to do a 4790K build, but can't justify it at the moment as my 930 still does everything I need for the time being. It's been upgraded since with Mavericks, a Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD, 24GB ram and...

Article: Building a CustoMac: Buyer's Guide March 2014 I have had a really good experience with my Monoprice 27" IPS Zero G Slim. Although I bought it on sale for about $325, not full price at ~$425. The stand kind of sucks (I mounted it on an Ergotron LX arm) and the monitor is Dual Link DVI...
